Mountain View, CA, May 16, 2002
IMPAC Medical Systems, Inc., a leading provider of
integrated clinical and administrative management systems for
cancer specialists, announced today the acquisition of Intellidata,
Inc., a leading clinical Laboratory Information System (LIS)
supplier for medium-to-large multi-site clinics, small-to-midsize
hospitals, and independent reference laboratories.
The acquisition of Intellidata will extend IMPAC’s Multi-ACCESSTM
oncology management system to include IntelliLab™, Intellidata’s
LIS that’s capable of interfacing to laboratory devices. The
result is the seamless reporting of laboratory results in IMPAC’s
electronic medical record (EMR), and an LIS solution that
addresses both the clinical and business needs of the cancer
specialist. IMPAC will continue to support the import of lab data
from any LIS via the HL7 format; however IntelliLab™ provides
IMPAC customers with an integrated LIS solution and immediate
access to critical lab values at the point-of-care.
“IMPAC chose Intellidata as its LIS solution because the system
provides sophisticated clinical analysis, connects to virtually
any lab device, and supports the business requirements of the
cancer center,” said Joe Jachinowski, president and CEO of IMPAC.
Will Campbell, president of Intellidata added, “Intellidata
features, such as Medicare Medical Necessity checking and
‘Keyword’ ordering, facilitate the laboratory ordering and billing
process; while integration with IMPAC’s EMR expedites results
reporting and review.”
